I am sorry I haven't replied in several months. My hydro is congenital, due to a brain aneurysm. But the Epilepsy is due to all the surgery I had when I was a youngster(44 now, six surgeries by 9yrs.-old). I don't have any 'true' face-to-face friends. While I do ride my racing bike and do have friends at the bike shop I usually get my bike serviced at, their friendship is 'marginal'. Because I don't go out to bars, or parties AND, they don't know the extent of my health. While my health is seemingly stable, I constantly worry about the 'what if', of 911 being idiots, on top of other citizens just not caring at all to the point that I could die prematurely due to ignorance.
